Regional Radio Goals

To provide and manage mobile and portable radio communications for Harris County departments and qualified agencies

The Regional Radio System operates as a CLOSED RADIO NETWORK. Only authorized users may lawfully access this network

Since these features are now active, it is mandatory that all new radios include RADIO AUTHENTICATION and PHASE II TDMA

Due to end of life for existing analog radio system hardware and pending changes to Federal Communication Commission (FCC) requirements ,

Harris County will be migrating to a pure digital Project 25 radio system by December 31, 2015.
